Mid 70s recommendations |
Hey all,
I fanally have figured out this download stuff. ( I think)
I have succesfully downloaded my first show attended and my last show attended. Now I am looking to branch out into new territory.
Looking for recommendations on good auds for download in the years 73 thru 76.
Please help steer me in the right direction!
Thanks,
Finster

Re: Mid 70s recommendations |
Now I'm not a big fan of audience recordings, and I surely dont understand the folks who prefer AUDs to SBDs, but I do enjoy this show from 7/1/73 from time to time. The China/Rider segue is particularly cool, as is the Playin' and fierce second set jam...

But since you are getting downloading down, why not get some fine SBD files from Speeding Arrow?

Re: Mid 70s recommendations |
this is by far the worst group of years to focus on if you are in the market for downloadable auds from this site.
click the link above for downloadable shows. sort by date, got to the last page.... you will see there is only a handful available from 74.... and of course, what? were there 4 gigs in 75?... the summer and fall of 76 is fairly well documented but... that;s it
if you want choice in auds, you have to head to the early 80s, where there is an overwhelming amount of (often underwhelming) stuff to choose from.
try this:

Re: Mid 70s recommendations |
My personal fave AUD from the period is this gem:

Quality is astounding for the time period and the show is fantastic. The Birdsong is among the best you're gonna hear (and check out Bobby's work...stunning) as well as one of those monster Playin's. Must have in my book.

Re: Mid 70s recommendations |
Thanks for the insight folks. That is why I asked. As I said I am new to downloading. The reason I asked about auds is because that is all I know how to download from this site. I'm sure others that are smarter than me have learned a work around for the SBDs. I usually would prefer a SBD over an AUD, but sometimes I just like the crowd vibe that an aud provides.
Thanks for the tip about speeding arrow. I had know idea of it's existence. I will also check out the aud recommendations that have been given.

Re: Mid 70s recommendations |
6/23 and 6/24/74 both circulate in excellent (for the era) audience recordings done by Jerry Moore.
6/17/75 isn't quite as good, but it's worth having. Also have to offer a second vote for the 7/1/73 show Cliff mentions above.

Re: Mid 70s recommendations |
I'lll probably catch flack for this because '76 gets no respect around here but the Menke AUDS of the Orpheum run in July are pretty damn good. These shows are among the best of the entire year and the SDBs are great but the AUDs capture the energy much better, IM not-so-H O.
